The dollar is so low now compared to the Thai money and the immigration office in Thailand is doing something about it. From July 2007 the price for this visas will go up

1.NON-IMMIGRANT VISA
US $60.00 for single entry]
US $150.00 for multiple entries
US $150.00 (APEC Multiple Entries)
US $300.00 (Three-year Non-Immigrant “B” for Business and Work)

2. TOURIST VISA
US $30.00 per entry

3. TRANSIT VISA
US $25.00 per entry

There is also a rumor going on that they are going to be even stricter with the VISA after this but you never know. Nothing is for sure now when the military is in Power they have no clue what so ever what they actually doing or what is the best thing for Thailand or not. Thailand is now in some kind of vacuum with all people waiting for the election only 6 month from now.

I met my Thai wife online

As you all know I was married before and I met my Thai wife online actually. I was having a quite evening home and I had my chat on in ChatThailand.com and I said as a headline who wrote I am a superstar. Suddenly she popped up and told me some groups that could have made the song but even if it was not correct she was funny to talk to. I was bored of all the girls in the disco and I was not actually looking for a girlfriend but I guess I got one anyway.
She moved into to my place within 7 days I think and we got married after 1 year not so much we believed in marriage but because of the Visa for Thailand. I guess it was the best girlfriend I had in Thailand because we stayed together for 4 years and we had lots of fun time. But all fun must have an end and now we separated she moved out, we had too much fighting and for all I know she met another guy online and they are now happy I guess.

I still date a little bit online when I have time. But I am even more selective when it comes to online dating. I have a profile in Chat Thailand and some other sites and I some time go to dates but the problem with Thai girls is that they all write the same thing that they are happy cooking, listen to music, go to movies its all the same I wish they understand that all men does not want to hear that. It is like a stereo type of Thai girls and my ex wife did not say that and I think thats why I like her she had a personality outside the norm or now when I look back on it maybe it was a problem. :)

Visit the fruit Orchards in Rayong Thailand

If you like Fruit and loads of it now it’s the time to go fruit hunting in Thailand. If you live in Bangkok or Pattaya Rayong and Chanthaburi Province is not far away and they loads of orchards. They are growing rambutan, mangosteen, the ever smelly durian, longon, zalacca and many other fruits. You can buy fruit directly from the orchards or you can buy them in the Tapong Central Market but that is not so much fun is it? Visit the website for Tourist in Rayong www.tat-rayong.com for more information and maps.

Indonesian Vice President wants to eat marijuana

Indonesian Vice President Jusuf Kalla is against drugs in every way but I guess he is missing his moms cooking. He wants to make it legal to use marijuana for cooking use only. Many people in Indonesia use marijuana for cooking and a chef said that in the Acehnese province it was a common as coriander.

In other Asian countries like Cambodia everybody that been there know what they get when they ask for an extra happy pizza.

In Thailand there is no such thing yet but we should sure need some happy politicians.
